Okay... I'm playing 100 $10SNGs to try to get my groove back... So, I figure I can experiment a little... I get this hand in the BB and decide to see if this guy is paying 2 seconds of attention to me, or if he's just playing his cards w/ one hand and whacking his pud with the other...
Normally, I probably would've led out the flop, as I like betting my draws...

Okay... So I'm tryin to represent trip 6s... I tried to bet enough so that someone who actually HAD trips would want a call, but not enough to chase the guy off... He calls... Shit, I hope HE doesn't have trips...
River: (t490)
(2 players)
Hero checks, UTG+1 checks.
WOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOO I hit my miracle flush... Okay, now what's the plan of action... I figure he's got a hand to keep betting and calling me down... I think if it was REAL strong (ie... trips...2pr...), he would've bumped me up by now... I MAY get a few chips out of him by betting my flush... BUT, no way he's calling anything that matters that much if he doesn't have a VERY strong hand (ie... trips... boat...)... Hopefully, he's got a DECENT hand (if its a boat, I'm gonna pay him off), and if I check the flush, he'll bluff bet it out... Of course, that doesn't happen
... But, it would've been cool, huh...
Final Pot: t490
Results in white below:
Hero has 8d Kd (flush, king high).
UTG+1 has 2c Ac (two pair, sixes and twos).
Outcome: Hero wins t490.
As it turns out... This guy was just a total doucebag... I can't fathom that he would've called ANY river bet anyway... God only knows what the hell he was doing even playing past the flop w/ bottom pair...
